RC Networks

Resistor-capacitor Networks, RC circuit, RC filter

What are resister-capacitor (RC) circuits used for?

Electrocube carries an extensive line of more than 400 precision UL-recognized and ULc-approved RC Networks. Also known as resistors, resistor-capacitors, or RC filters, Electrocube’s RC Networks are designed to prevent or substantially minimize the occurrence of arcing and noise generations in relay and switch contacts.

What types of resistor-capacitor circuits does Electrocube manufacture and distribute?

Featuring a wide selection of case configurations with a number of leads, Electrocube RC networks are manufactured both off-the-shelf and made-to-custom design specifications for single-phase or three-phase applications from one network to 40 networks in a container. Thousands of unique suppression designs eliminate surges produced by relays and solenoids.

Arc suppressing resistor-capacitor (RC) Networks consist of specially designed precision capacitors and resistors connected in a series. Spark discharges and induced noise are absorbed over a wide range by the accumulation characteristic and impedance of the capacitor, while the RC time constant delays and averages surge voltage and oscillations.
